Join Satish Kumar for a public talk to explore the challenges of modern living and how to address them.
 

Dr. Satish Kumar
Raised as a Jain monk from the age of nine, Satish became a campaigner for land reform at eighteen, working to turn Gandhi's vision of a renewed India and peaceful world into reality.

In 1962, concerned about nuclear proliferation, he began, with his friend E.P. Menon, an 8,000-mile peace pilgrimage, walking from India to Moscow, Paris, London and Washington with no money, through deserts, mountains and supposedly hostile territories to deliver a message of peace to the leaders of the four nuclear powers at the time.

In 1973, he settled in England and was invited, by the renowned economist E.F. Schumacher to be the editor of Resurgence magazine, now titled ‘Resurgence and Ecologist’. Under his editorship the magazine has become, according to the Guardian newspaper, 'The spiritual and artistic flagship of the green movement".

In 1991, Satish co-founded Schumacher College, in Totnes, Devon, UK, an international residential education centre named after E. F. Schumacher, which aims to provide transformative learning for sustainable living.

Satish writes, teaches and leads workshops internationally on holistic economics, reverential ecology, holistic education and voluntary simplicity. His books include 'Soil Soul Society', 'No Destination', 'Earth Pilgrim' and 'You Are Therefore I Am'.

Satish is a regular teacher with KFBG and we are pleased to invite him back.
